Which of the following is a characteristic of mixtures? A. Mixtures can only be in solid and liquid form. B. Substances that are
Taya2010 [7]

The correct choice is B.  

Mixtures retain their properties because science has proven it. Take a bag of trail mix for example. Those raisins and marshmallows and m&m’s can each be separated. When you take them out, they keep their same texture.  

 

Is not correct because mixtures can be solids (Trail mix is one example)  

Correct  

Is not correct because sometimes it cannot be seen (Lemonade powder and water is one example)  

Is not correct because trail mix is an example.

A 100 W light bulb is placed in a cylinder equipped with a moveable piston. The light bulb is turned on for 2.0×10−2 hour, and t
drek231 [11]

Answer:

(a) ΔU = 7.2x10²

(b) W = -5.1x10²

(c) q = 5.2x10²

Explanation:

From the definition of power (p), we have:

p = \frac {\Delta W}{\Delta t} = \frac {\Delta U}{\Delta t} (1)

<em>where, p: is power (J/s = W (watt)) W: is work = ΔU (J) and t: is time (s) </em>  

(a) We can calculate the energy (ΔU) using equation (1):

\Delta U = p \cdot \Delta t = 100 \frac{J}{s} \cdot 2.0\cdot 10^{-2} h \cdot \frac{3600s}{1h} = 7.2 \cdot 10^{2} J  

(b) The work is related to pressure and volume by:

\Delta W = -p \Delta V

<em>where p: pressure and ΔV: change in volume = V final - V initial      </em>

\Delta W = - p \cdot (V_{fin} - V_{ini}) = - 1.0 atm (5.88L - 0.85L) = - 5.03 L \cdot atm \cdot \frac{101.33J}{1 L\cdot atm} = -5.1 \cdot 10^{2} J

(c) By the definition of Energy, we can calculate q:

\Delta U = \Delta W + \Delta q

<em>where Δq: is the heat transfer </em>

\Delta q = \Delta U - \Delta W = 7.2 J - (-5.1 \cdot 10^{2} J) = 5.2 \cdot 10^{2} J    

I hope it helps you!

Which technology is used to deal with waste management?
Alisiya [41]
<span>D) recycling ;)


Waste Management's Aerobic-Anaerobic Bioreactor* is designed to accelerate waste degradation by combining attributes of the aerobic and anaerobic bioreactors. The objective of the sequential aerobic-anaerobic treatment is to cause the rapid biodegradation of food and other easily degradable waste in the aerobic stage in order to reduce the production of organic acids in the anaerobic stage resulting in the earlier onset of methanogenesis. In this system the uppermost lift or layer of waste is aerated, while the lift immediately below it receives liquids. Landfill gas is extracted from each lift below the lift receiving liquids. Horizontal wells that are installed in each lift during landfill construction are used convey the air, liquids, and landfill gas. The principle advantage of the hybrid approach is that it combines the operational simplicity of the anaerobic process with the treatment efficiency of the aerobic process. Added benefits include an expanded potential for destruction of volatile organic compounds in the waste mass. (*US Patent 6,283,676 B1)</span>
